www.parachinilaw.com I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

Dispute Legal Questions and Answers

Dispute

Employment Agreement

Missouri

Asked on Oct 27, 2021

Is my non-compete enforceable?

If a small company made you a verbal offer of salary, car, health insurance assistance then after you signed the employment agreement, including non compete, made excuses and never made good on the car and the insurance assistance, is the non compete enforceable. I singed based on promises of a partnership and those additional perks since they didn't provide any other benefits. I turned down other opportunities because of the partnership potential and brought my own equipment and opportunity. Now after providing new business opportunity I asked for some protection in writing regarding partnership in the new technology, mainly developed by me and partly carried over from previous experience. Instead of getting the promised protection in writing I got fired. I know that it isn't in writing because of excuses but I also know they would never lie under oath. They are many things but they wouldn't do that for very religeous reasons. The non compete is onerous and those perks were to sweeten the deal so I would sign. I even met with their attorney to complain about it before signing based on their promises which then never materialized and were not provided in writing.

Donya G.

Answered Nov 30, 2021

I suggest you seek an employment attorney in your area to discuss. If they are so religious, what happened to you should not have. An agreement for the partnership need to be in writing to be enforceable. If you signed an employment agreement, then you should have signed something when you were leaving. An attorney would need to review both documents to advise you going forward. All the best

Building Lease

North Carolina

Asked on Sep 25, 2021

If you break a lease can a landlord add crazy charges without an agreement?

I signed a lease 9/11 and tried to break it 9/13. Landlord charged me 60 days and did not provide an early termination agreement

Donya G.

Answered Oct 5, 2021

Is there an early termination in the original document that you signed? Typically, you can withdraw from an agreement with minimal fees but it all depends on what your contract states. If you contract does not have any early termination language, you will need a real estate attorney in your state to advise on the law of your state and how to handle. All the best Donya Gordon

Contract Agreement

North Dakota

Asked on Feb 9, 2022

Booking Contract Dispute - Who has jurisdiction?

I recently booked a property rental through VRBO. I left a review of the property and now the property owner is threatening legal action if I don't take down my review. The property is in Turks & Caicos, the property owner resides in Canada and I live in the United States. What country has legal jurisdiction and who/where would I go to seek legal counsel?

Donya G.

Answered Feb 15, 2022

You should go to VRBO terms and conditions. The document should list where disputes should be held. Since both you and the owner are users of the site, you are both bound by the terms. If your review was based on your experience, another option is to do a cease and desist, but I would need to discuss the matter with you in order to fully assist. you can reach out to me via Contracts Counsel. All the best Donya Gordon

Partnership Agreement

New York

Asked on Feb 9, 2022

litigation over partnership

Partner is diverting monies for his own use

Donya G.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

Hello, I am sorry to hear that. Do you have a contract for the partnership? What does it say about resolving disputes? Do you have evidence of the misuse of funds? Can you cut off the funds so that they can no longer misuse the funds? For your safety, please do not confront the partner. All your remedies will depend on your agreement and the state of your business incorporation or where you do business. I see you are in New York. Is that where your business is incorporated? I would love the opportunity to work with you to resolve this. I am an New York contracts attorney who works with clients on contract disputes. I am an Arbitrator and have been a judicial clerk to a Civil Court Judge so I have extensive experience with disputes. When can we get on a call to discuss? I am available later today, Friday 18th or anytime next week. You can connect with me on Contracts Counsel. Looking forward to hearing from and working with you. Sincerely Donya Gordon
